To @ZZ whom t may concern.-

Beit known that I, HENRY SALSBURY, a subject of the Queen of GreatBritain, and a resident of 125 and 126 Long Acre, London, England, haveinvented certain new and useful Improvements Connected withLamp-Burners, (patented in Great Britain, No. 22,196, dated December 3,1892, and in France, No. 227,624, dated February 3, 1893,) of which thefollowing is a specilication.

The invention is intended for use with oil reservoirs of a longcylindrical form for being dropped into the candle sockets of carriageand like lamps in substitution for ordinary candles.

The annexed drawings show my invention as applied to the burner portionof single round wick lamps such as are usedin substitution for candlesin carriage lamps.

In the drawings Figure 1 is a side view, partly in section, and Fig. 2is a perspective View.

According to the sectional elevation Fig. 1 the base A of the burner isprovided on its interior portion with a screw thread B into which gearsa star or lift wheel C attached to the wick tube D for raising orlowering the wick E (Fig. 2) when the rim F is turned. The Wick tubefits loosely in the base A and has its end burred over to prevent itswithdrawal. Y

G is an extension of the base A and provided with a screw thread forconnection to the lamp reservoir H.

I is a cap to the burner AA and also acts as a distancing piece betweenthe rim F and base A. I

What I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

In combination the base A threaded internally, the wick tube looselymounted therein and having an upper bearing collar F and lower retainingflange d, and the star wheel carried by the tube, substantially asdescribed.

In witness whereof I have hereto signed my name, in the presence of twosubscribing witnesses, this 2d day of October, 1893.

HENRY SALSBURY.
